Does this grinder disassemble for easy cleaning?

I never thought about cleaning it. I believe you can brush it out. My son has one and he's the neat one. I just like it very much and use it every day. I can cook, but I considering brushing and cleaning explitives which should be deleted.

This grinder does disassemble but it is not easy to clean. The small cleaning brush that comes with the grinder is practically useless. We purchased a larger brush to help facilitate cleaning.

It does disassemble but can be tricky putting the blade assembly back in and is the only negative feature we've found over the past year. My husband loves the grinder and would highly recommend it.

Yes, it's easy to remove the hopper and get to the burrs (but I don't remember the last time I did that). I put so much coffee through it daily there's no chance for stale ground coffee to accumulate. As I recall, a little brush comes with the grinder. --Jene

I haven't taken it fully apart, but I did disassemble the grinding mechanism to show a friend of mine. that part does come apart easily. the grinder also comes with a pack of Grindz, which is a grinder cleaner. I have not used it yet. the instructions say Grind is "an all-natural, safe, and easy way to keep your grinder fresh and clean." I also know that the base is one component & will not disassemble.

As for cleaning; After I finish grinding the coffee beans, I use the little broom/brush (that comes attached to the side of the grinder) to get all the grinds out. That's it! I could use a damp paper towel to wipe it out if I were to grind other things, but I just do coffee. :)

Yes it is very easy to use, I don't have strong hands either and I have no trouble at all with this grinder.

Haven't yet done that despite using it twice a day for months. Assume when I feel it necessary I'll take off the rubber base and wash the glass part by hand. Wouldn't think it necessary to wash the grinder part. The grinder part may need to be brushed off from time to time; but to date it has been grinding consistently.

Yes it does, they also include plastic lids for storage. Love this grinder, use it frequently!

Yes, it does disassemble easily. But I would like to sell mine to get one that is more lighter to carry and easier to put back.

As the others have said (and one person already provided detailed info), the answer is yes -- dismantling and cleaning is quite easy. I also enjoy the quality of the grind and the features that enable one to not only set the fineness of the grind but also the number of cups. For my 5-cup, automatic-drip coffee maker, using a rich-tasting medium-roast coffee, I use the #7 setting for the grind and the 6-cup setting for the number of cups.

I have no idea. I don't recall if I even knew it existed. I should have though because my grinder broke in about a year.

I only have used this grinder on almonds. It is very easy to clean if you do it immediately. Hot, soapy water does the trick. The outer surface is not as shiny as when new, but a metal polish may fix that. Be careful that the glass jar does not become unattached during use. Just carry by the bottom. Enjoy!

Yes it does come apart for easy cleaning. I believe this is the best one out there. It's incredibly sharp so use the guide but it will get the job done. Good luck.

Yes, all parts come apart and are very easy to clean. One of the reasons I love this cup!

Blades are not removable. Best way to clean a grinder like this is to use RICE. Put in about 3-4 tablespoons of rice (not cooked) and chop it up. Rice has a neutral flavor and naturally soaks up and clings to any oils, debris and gunk that coffee, spices and herbs will leave. Then just dump the ground rice in the compost. Works like a charm.

This is my first grinder, but I would say cleaning is not that difficult. I rinse out the grinder part and then wipe it down with a rag.

All you do is pull up on the grinder assembly like you do when you clean it. The new one is a direct drop-in replacement. No instructions are needed, or provided.

No. That grinder is a piece of junk. Don't buy it. I purchased two different grinders under $20.00 and they both burned up within 10 grinds. I finally spent 30-35 dollars for one at Bed bath & beyond, and it works better. It was a cuisine art, I believe...

I've never tried to wash it, I just use a toothpick to gather excess debris left in the grinder. It's not really something that needs to be washed in my opinion.

Yes. I can unscrew all of it for cleaning. I ordered one last month, and am happy with it as a lil inexpensive model just for mild personal use.
